Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Advanced Warning System 3.6.7

Advaned Warning System

This is a port of aws and i release this with permission...(yes i did ask the original author)

This version of the warning includes

• 1 vbulletin 3.6.x product file (XML)
• 1 admincp navigation XML
• 1 functions file(functions_warning.php)
• 3 images
• 3 cronjobs
• 1 modcp file to allow moderators to view warnings information without having to give admincp access(mod_warn.php)
• 1 admincp file to manage the system options(admin_warn.php)
• 1 XML to control permissions(bitfield_aws.xml)

For a completer list of the system features you can refer to this

This version will also require vbulletin 3.6.x to run.If you run 3.5.x or any other release then 3.6.x you will see a message.

This system is tested for a long time and i believe it's stable enough for a public release HOWEVER since this is a major hack and i'm just human please consider this first public run still as "beta"

instructions ow howto install can be found in the docs directory within the zip

statistics

• 25 plugins
• 27 templates
• 5 new MySQL tables
• 3 standard vbulletin tables alterd (user,post,and usergroup)
• 827 phrases
• 47 settings

updates

A problem has been found where no link is provided to view your own warnings(normal users) in the member profile only i fixed this.To get the fix you will need to reedit your "MEMBERINFO" template and reimport product-aws.xml (set allow overwrite to yes)

I moved the cron jobs from the install/uinstall code to the product file.
version check url now uses https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/misc.php?...rsion&t=124477

to upgrade read upgrade.txt in the docs directory

24-9-2006

a product depency whas added the system will no longer install on PHP 5 (in response to continued error reports on that PHP version)

People on PHP 5 can follow this instructions to avoid the PHP version related error message BUT remember you are on your own if you do this.I won't upgrade my PHP until PHP 5 is there main stable release (www.php.net)


1-1-2007
A bug has been reported in the system.This bug whas causing vbulletin to throw an error when you try to use admincp => users=> add a new user

Fatal error: Call to a member function clean_gpc() on a non-object in class_dm_user.php(2385) : eval()'d code on line 35

Solution

Edit plugin "AWS:warn link in usermanager" and replace all code with this

PHP Code:

$quicklinks["../Warn.php?" . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "do=WarnUserNoPost&id=" . $vbulletin->GPC['userid']] = $vbphrase['aws_warn_user_admin']; 


i'll update the package when i get home


Another Bug is fixed

This release includes a fix for the problem "call to member function on a non object class_dm_user.php)" when you try to add a new user manaually (after submitting the form)

I've upgrade to vB 3.6.0 from a vB 3.5.x and ?AWS? was installed on the old ver.
It is still working like fire without any problem.
Actually I LOVE ?AWS? that much to modify its files for translation (It takes a week to do it) and I?ll never replace it with the built-in infraction system. ?AWS? is much customizable.

about the upgrading, you said:

admincp => products & plugins => add product => product-aws.xml
allow overwrite=> yes

Is this will keep the current warnings database or would remove the old one?
In addition, what about template modifications? does it different from the old ver? or the old modifications will work fine?
I checked the new ver. And found that you did add many phrases (good work mate)
So, I think the template modifications won?t be the same all the way.
If you add a specific upgrading steps, that would be very helpful for people in my case.

Best Regards

did you set the permissions ? also that information in the postbit and MEMBERINFO templates only show up if there values are greater then 0
and keep in mind admincp =>advanced warning system => manage warning options => viewing options =>Who can view the Warning Points and bans? this should be set to mod

I did notice that in order for ANY member to see there own warnings you have to set "Can View Warnings" in "aws(Advanced Warning System) Permissions " to yes for each usergroup. Is this correct or is it a bug?
Again, great product.

correct but you will not see anything if there are no warnings issued

[outlaw621]

Fantastic. Just wanted to make sure it was correct. Thanks for your quick reply.

Seems there is indeed a problem.If you login as a normal user (registerd without any special rights) a link should be provided to view your own warnings and this is missing.I just spotted this bug trying to fix it right now

problem found and fixed updating zip file ...
